[PD] A newbie needs first aid!

[marius schebella]

hi,

for the midi-input you use [notein]. the first outlet of this object gives
the value for the key. it is triggered when you hit the key and again when
you release it. with [spigot] you can easily filter all noteup events, (the
note up is always keynumber in connection with volume 0...) with [select 64
65 66] (or whatever number) you can send a bang whenever that certain key is
hit...

the display of the pictures needs some memory... and maybe a fast graphic
card. anyway. i think you will need GEM to show the pictures and then use
pix_multiimage in connection with pix_draw. load all three series into one
pix_multiimage object and build a kind of counter for whatever picture
should be shown.

the timing should come from the [metro 333]....

hope that´s enough information.

Marius.

I have a big problem with pd (what else; I'm a PD-greenhorn)

A friend of mine and me need to finish a project -programmed in PD- till
tomorrow and don't know how to learn this program in only one day.
If there's anybody out there who can help us... please do so!

We have several gif-sequences (each 32 pics).
The first problem we have is: The sequence should start by pressing a
(doesn't matter wich one) midi-key.
After that the pix-video should start by showing one frame by another with a
time delay of 0.3 seconds in between until the
32th picture was shown 0.3 seconds. If no other key (for starting an other
gif-sequence) was pressed,  the video should be looped. If an other
key was pressed, the other sequence should start after the 32th picture from
the 1st video.
The whole thing should stop after the 320th shown picture and start again,
when you press a key on the keyboard.

Please help us! We really need to get that thing finished.
Thank you and bye.
